Basilica of the Immaculate Conception in Batangas City, Batangas is one of the oldest Catholic churches in the province. The church was built in 1581 under Father Diego Mojica. Father Mojica, was the Augustinian Pastor of Calapan, Mindoro at that time. After 179 years, the church was demolished and rebuilt through Father Pedro Cuesta's effort. It was in 1948, when Pope Pius XII granted the church the honor of Basilica.
